Tipu Sultan Walk

Historians and common people alike have a love-hate relationship with Tipu Sultan. One’s travel to Bangalore would never be complete without tracing the foot steps of our Sultan, who has left many a mark on the city’s future, seen even today.

Tipu’s Summer Palace is the most popular of his heritage, though what remains is only a portion of a bigger complex. As we explore the precincts, we journey two hundred years back through the photographs and relics from late 1700s to early 1800s, the remains of the original palace, and most importantly the exhibition of Mysore rockets that became the foundation for modern Rocket technology!

Just outside is the centuries-old temple of Lord Venkataramana, with whom Tipu himself had a unique relationship. Close by is the Bangalore fort, which Tipu Sultan’s general defended until his last breath. A dargah nearby marks the terrible battles!

The interesting part of every controversial figure’s life is that of stories, myths and anecdotes. This trail is similar too. While the physical remains of Tipu Sultan’s era are dilapidated, the tales remain, as lively as it can ever be. (Source: Facebook)
